The most acclaimed Star Trek adventure of all time with an important message. It is the 23rd century, and a mysterious alien probe is threatening Earth by evaporating the oceans and destroying the atmosphere. In their frantic attempt to save mankind, Admiral Kirk and his crew must time travel back to 1986 San Francisco where they find a world of punk, pizza and exact-change buses that are as alien to them as anything they have ever encountered in the far-off reaches of the galaxy. William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy return as Kirk and Spock, along with the entire Star Trek crew.Written by

Kirk and the crew name the Klingon Bird-of-Prey "Bounty", suggested by Dr. McCoy. That was written as a tribute to the mutiny on the H.M.S. Bounty, which took place on April 28, 1789. See more »

Dr. Taylor gestures toward some orca sculptures while making a comment about whales. Despite the "killer whale" misnomer, orca's are not whales, but rather a type of dolphin. As an expert, she would know that. See more »
Quotes
McCoy:
You sure this is such a bright idea?
Kirk:
What do you mean?
McCoy:
[referring to Spock]
I mean him! Back at his post like nothing happened. I don't know if you got the whole picture or not, but he's not quite operating on all thrusters!
Kirk:
It'll come back to him.
McCoy:
Are you sure?
[Kirk doesn't answer]
McCoy:
That's what I thought.

The Voyage Home is the Star Trek film that had the highest box office gross. It captured the imagination of the public who were eager to see Kirk and the crew in present day (1986) San Francisco. Luckily, the film was solid in all aspects and was enjoyed by long-time fans of the series as well. Although the outcome of the film is never in doubt, it never loses the attention of the viewer and entertains throughout. It actually felt fresh and original despite the fact that time travel had been done before (in the TV series) and it was the fourth film in the franchise. Recommended, 8/10.
